Poet’s Note
Poet’s essay
Commentary
Praise for Kwon Park

Seemingly I leave even more questions, but I think writing poetry does not suggest answers to questions but rather the procedure of seeking answers. In that sense, Love and the Beginning is clear. In the next poetry book, can I arrive at a love I haven’t figured
out?

From“ Poet’s Essay”
In her poems, rules and form are playful. Surprisingly, we meet new freedoms in constraints. In collective representations that define our lives, we can face a new self not yet recognized and enjoy freedom that is not confined by established perceptions and
names.
Kim Joo-won (Literary critic)
